If you want happiness for a day — go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year — inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime — help someone else.”
Chinese Proverb

One facet of optimism is practising gratitude consistently to help you gain perspective.
Numerous studies link optimism with longevity and good health.
